Client Support Specialist - SAM
We are a growing, dedicated team of financial professionals, mathematicians, financial engineers, software developers working together to transform the field of wealth management. We aim to make portfolio management frictionless, enabling every investor to benefit from levels of customization and tax management that were once the exclusive preserve of ultra-high net worth investors.
We are devoted to doing things right, bringing a fiduciary standard of care to all that we do.
Position Overview
As Smartleaf’s Client Support Specialist, you will play a critical role in supporting our software clients, specifically the clients of our subadvisory service, Smartleaf Asset Management. You will empower clients to better utilize our innovative functionality. You will be a champion for the client base - helping problem-solve system issues, advocating for their needs with cross-functional stakeholders, and understanding how we can help them reach their firm’s goals.
Success in this role will translate to proficient Smartleaf users who are getting real value out of using the system.
We expect that a successful team member is looking for career growth. The growth opportunities include:
- Owning the success of a group of existing clients
- Owning implementations for new clients
- Owning pre-sales subject-matter-expert activities
We strongly prefer candidates local to the Boston area. While office attendance is at the discretion of employees at this time, we do find that onboarding and training greatly benefit from in-person interactions.
